The revered Korean Dharma master and prominent socially engaged Buddhist activist Venerable Pomnyun Sunim, founder of the Jungto Society community and social movement, led an opening ceremony for the Baek Yongseong Memorial Hall at Jukrimjeong-sa, a Buddhist temple in South Korea\u2019s North Jeolla Province, on 4 December.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The memorial hall celebrates the life of Seon (Zen) Master Baek Yongseong (1864\u20131940), a pre-eminent scholar of the late Joseon dynasty (1392\u20131897) who played an instrumental role in the restoration and reformation of the Buddhadharma on the Korean Peninsula, and was also a key figure in the historic March First Movement for Korean independence in 1919, in opposition Japanese colonial rule.<\/p>\n
